It's your tractor so do what is best for you. Most folks just feel you should not cut those big long axles. True, you can't put em back. Can't argue or blame them for opinions but if I owned it and I thought shorter axles would be best for me and I didn't need them long axles and I didn't care if maybe someone might need them, then I'd weight it all rightly so and decide. Rent one of those portable band saws and cut them square. You can also cut with a torch if you know what you are doing and have a torch that can handle it. You can then square them off with a disk grinder and remove all trace of torch cut. It would take a while but I could make them look like they'd never been altered. The band saw however would do a great job faster.
